Holography and localization of information in quantum gravity

Kyriakos Papadodimas, Alexandre Mathieu Frédéric Belin

Within the AdS/CFT correspondence, we identify a class of CFT operators which represent diff-invariant and approximately local observables in the gravitational dual. Provided that the bulk state breaks all asymptotic symmetries, we show that these operator ...

Indentation and stability of woven domes

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Célestin Vallat, Tian Chen, Tomohiko Sano, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux

Discrete domes are doubly curved structures comprising a network of beam-like elements. We study the mechanics of discrete domes made of ribbons woven in a pentagonal triaxial pattern. Experiments and finite element simulations are performed to characteriz ...

A note on the large charge expansion in 4d CFT

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

In this letter, we discuss certain universal predictions of the large charge expansion in conformal field theories with U (1) symmetry, mainly focusing on four-dimensional theories. We show that, while in three dimensions quantum fluctuations are responsib ...

The completed SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: measurement of the BAO and growth rate of structure of the luminous red galaxy sample from the anisotropic correlation function between redshifts 0.6 and 1

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Yuting Wang

We present the cosmological analysis of the configuration-space anisotropic clustering in the completed Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) Data Release 16 galaxy sample. This sample consists of luminous red ...

Perturbative approach to tunneling and quantum interferences in spin clusters

Frédéric Mila, Ivo Aguiar Maceira

Collective tunneling is a ubiquitous phenomenon in finite-size spin clusters that shows up in systems as diverse as molecular magnets or spin clusters adsorbed at surfaces. The basic problem we explore is to understand how small flipping terms can cooperat ...

The covering radius and a discrete surface area for non-hollow simplices

Matthias Schymura

We explore upper bounds on the covering radius of non-hollow lattice polytopes. In particular, we conjecture a general upper bound of d/2 in dimension d, achieved by the "standard terminal simplices" and direct sums of them. We prove this conjecture up to ...

The hamburger theorem

Jan Kyncl

We generalize the ham sandwich theorem to d +1 measures on R-d as follows. Let mu(1), mu(2),..., mu(d+1) be absolutely continuous finite Borel measures on R-d. Let omega(i) = mu(i) (R-d) for i is an element of [d + 1], omega = min{omega(i) : i is an elemen ...

Gravity, scale invariance and the hierarchy problem

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Andrey Shkerin

Combining the quantum scale invariance with the absence of new degrees of freedom above the electroweak scale leads to stability of the latter against perturbative quantum corrections. Nevertheless, the hierarchy between the weak and the Planck scales rema ...

Horava Gravity is Asymptotically Free in 2+1 Dimensions

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We compute the beta functions of marginal couplings in projectable Horava gravity in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions. We show that the renormalization group flow has an asymptotically free fixed point in the ultraviolet (UV), establishing the theory as a UV-com ...

Renormalization of Horava gravity

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We prove perturbative renormalizability of projectable Horava gravity. The key element of the argument is the choice of a gauge which ensures the correct anisotropic scaling of the propagators and their uniform falloff at large frequencies and momenta. Thi ...

Remarks on Schur's conjecture

János Pach, Filip Moric

Let P be a set of n > d points in for d >= 2. It was conjectured by Zvi Schur that the maximum number of (d-1)-dimensional regular simplices of edge length diam(P), whose every vertex belongs to P, is n. We prove this statement under the condition that any ...

Two and a half billion years of distance research

János Pach, Filip Moric

In a seminal paper published in 1946, Erd ̋os initiated the investigation of the distribution of distances generated by point sets in metric spaces. In spite of some spectacular par- tial successes and persistent attacks by generations of mathe- maticians, ...

Nature of the Bad Metallic Behavior of Fe1.06Te Inferred from Its Evolution in the Magnetic State

Marco Grioni, Ping-Hui Lin

We investigate with angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy the changes of the Fermi surface and the main bands from the paramagnetic state to the antiferromagnetic (AFM) state occurring below 72 K in Fe1.06Te. The evolution is completely different from ...

Non-linear matter power spectrum from Time Renormalisation Group: efficient computation and comparison with one-loop

Julien Lesgourgues, Benjamin Audren

We address the issue of computing the non-linear matter power spectrum on mildly non-linear scales with efficient semi-analytic methods. We implemented M. Pietroni's Time Renormalization Group (TRG) method and its Dynamical 1-Loop (D1L) limit in a numerica ...

Technically natural dark energy from Lorentz breaking

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We construct a model of dark energy with a technically natural small contribution to cosmic acceleration, i.e. this contribution does not receive corrections from other scales in the theory. The proposed acceleration mechanism appears generically in the lo ...

Consistent Extension of Horava Gravity

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

We propose a natural extension of Horava's model for quantum gravity, which is free from the notorious pathologies of the original proposal. The new model endows the scalar graviton mode with a regular quadratic action and remains power-counting renormaliz ...

Black hole bound on the number of species and quantum gravity at CERN LHC

Michele Redi

In theories with a large number N of particle species, black hole physics imposes an upper bound on the mass of the species equal to M-Planck/root N. This bound suggests a novel solution to the hierarchy problem in which there are N approximate to 10(32) g ...
